Apungar

I've played all except Golden Abyss (but I watched it as one big cutscene on Youtube.)
The first one was certainly influential and the second one raised the bar for video games as a whole, but the fourth is my favorite. Besides the technological feats, the story was incredibly gripping and the set pieces were fantastic. Really loved the relationship between Nathan and Sam as well as Nathan's struggle to balance married life and his longing for adventure.

Nathan is a great collaborator. He's very focused and very dedicated. To me, he's what every director looks for in an actor.

Thanks! Appreciate that.

Currently no plans to make more.... but we never say never.

More than anything, I just wanted to create a love letter to the franchise and character. I was doing a film in the fall that got pushed and it left me with a window in my schedule. Rather than jumping onto another random project, I wanted to dedicate my time to something that I could really get behind and feel passionate about.

We did 11 takes and ended up using the 7th. We spent a few days rehearsing and choreographing it, but when you throw in effects and blank gunfire it can get really complicated. For instance, Nathan's gun jammed on the first 5 takes and I didn't want to do CGI. Then there would be little hiccups with camera focus. It came down to the 7th take (which we used) and take 11 (which differed only with the way the stuntmen fell).
